What note is first position on a trombone?

First position on a (standard B-flat tenor) trombone is when the slide is all the way in. The fundamental is a B-flat, and then all the other notes in the overtone series can be produced. A valve instrument changes the length of tubing by pressing a set of valves down.

What are the positions on the trombone?

The trombone has 7 positions: First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. When learning your trombone positions, rather than think of them as 7 separate positions, it is helpful to think of them in groupings.

How do I remember my trombone notes?

When you identify the notes, you must say them out loud. This musical example would go like this: 1 Low, 1 Low, 4 Middle, 3 Middle, 1 Middle, 1 Middle, 4 High, 2 High, 1 High. This will help you learn your positions faster and help you memorize them quickly.
